I bought her finally after months of reading and brooding! Actually its not a difficult decision if you leave the cost out of it!! But in retrospect, i couldn't be happier with the decision to buy. Thanks to Sharanya and Vinod, my pro photographer friends who vouched for it.

The 35mm prime may look like a small lens, but the sharpness and responsiveness of the lens under low light/ portrait photography is GREAT. Not to mention the fact that its wider, which means more people fit into the portrait. Why didn't i get them sooner!
